Hi, I have found these on e-bay that seem to be the same ones that i use
REFILLABLE INK CARTRIDGES R265 R285 RX585 RX685 - V6 on eBay, also, Ink DIY Refill Kits, Printer Ink Cartridges, Computing (end time 19-Jan-09 10:52:35 GMT) the bottles come with nozzles that fit into the cartridge like the syringe but with a lot less mess The buyer I normally use is paultuk but he doesn't seem to have any items on at the moment Mick |

Ah thank you. I was looking at something like that at a US web site. I think that's a good compromise between buying filled cartridges and a continuous ink supply system.

Hi Carl - Wow! Do you mind if I do a little brain-picking?

Are all refill ink supplies poor? So there really is a reason why manufacturers recommend their own cartridges Quote:
What do you think of continuous ink systems? Quote:
Sorry to ask all these Qs but even scouring the web, it's soooo difficult to get good solid info on printers. Many thanks for your input. Ian |

Laser printing
I know several of you said Laser printers are not good for models but LD2062 in this thread:
WorldWorksGames :: View topic - Laser or Inkjet? says one of the (main?) guys used a printer for some of the builds. Ian |

Ian,
Some of us have used color laser prints for modeling, as have I, and I make a lot of vehicle models, while the print looks good, the toner flakes off, when I go to shape body panels, and is not as flexible when rolling parts or scoring them. You did come asking us for advice, all of us would say, yes color laser great for printing stuff from the web, but not so good for models, but for less frustration, we all recommend inkjets. in regards to WorldWorksGames, they usually make terrain, and buildings, not the type of models we build. by the way, what is your interest? if you want to do buildings and stuff, then yes, Laser would be better. if you want to build vehicles or aircraft, then inkjet is the preferred output method.

You know, Guys, the more I look into this, the more difficult it's becoming. Even Carl's wonderful HP Photosmart C7280 only gets 7/10 for quality on Trusted Reviews:
HP Photosmart C7280 All-in-One Inkjet Printer Review - Printer Reviews - TrustedReviews There seems to be little consensus in many reviews on many printers, and many seem not to have been reviewed at all. I think you pays your money and takes your choice. And chance. Hence my post. I appreciate all your comments. I'm sure I'll make a decision soon Ian |
